The Final touch

Now just two more steps to go.

If you cannot see the stage, press Tab key to hide all the panels. Now, select the button you once dragged on to the stage. Scroll through the stage to find it. After it has been selected, press Ctrl+Alt+Ato open the ActionScript window. Copy and paste the following code into it:

These just add more interactivity to the movie. Now, the user can rotate the object in any axis and also zoom in or out of it. By press in up or down keys, the user is giving a positive or negative value to the bx variable. Remember that this variable also affects rotation.

Similarly, pressing the left and right keys rotates the object in y axis.

Since there is no way of controlling the z axis, pressing the a and z keys rotates it on the z axis.

The Next 2 events increment or decrement the Viewport variable. This variable is used to convert the 3d objects to 2d objects. This variable determines how close to the screen the point of origin is. So, by pressing the apostrohe(') and the slash(/) keys, you literally zoom in and out of the object.

There is one more small thing left to do. If you don't see the Library window, press Ctrl+L to invoke it. Now open the Line movieclip and select the "fat-line" like thing. If you don't see the Mixer panel, go to Window - Panels - Mixer to see the mixer panel. Now, change the alpha value of the circle to 83%.

If you want, you can give a color tween to the line movieclip so that it changes color as it moves.

Now that's it. Project Complete. Publish or save the file and view it in the standalone player.

Hmm... what to say about this one? It's reminiscent of the closing notes of the opening music from the Three Stooges done in a church organ style with a closing cymbal crash. I'll give this one away gratis, but feel free to check out my free loops and potential upcoming license-mandated ones over in the respective part of Flashkit.
